| Not reading through 7 pages but the RFL need a wake up call ere , its not rocket science in times of financial problems reduce the ticket prices , its better to sell 10 thousand at half price than 5k at full price , i can see the whole weekend looking embarrassing for the rugby league with half empty stadiums shown on national tv in a world cup year too

| Basically the complacency of some of your fans due to you being 'the mighty Wigan' means they cant be d to travel 10 miles or so from your home ground to see a Cup semi-final. £26 for a semi final is not expensive at all, complete rubbish excuse. Fans of less successful clubs would sell out, simple as that. Just an observation and fair enough to those that do attend as im sure many on these forums will.

There's parking at the stadium, not sure if they charge on match days, they didn't when we played them in a friendly but they may do for this

I think it is free parking at the stadium (limited) or take your chance on side streets on the East side of the ground.
Pennington Flash Country park has a large amount of parking but they charge £5-00 on match days (10/15 min walk) and last Parsonage Retail Park have substantial parking free ,again app 10/15 min walk.

Apparently Leigh Miners are offering free car parking on the day, but there will be a lot of traffic around there as a roundabout junction nearby is having roadworks done on it currently. Leigh Miners is only about a 5 minute walk away from LSV.

Name me 1 final where someone couldn't get a ticket?
Unless we now have to bribe people to go to games for fear of missing out on a ticket for a game that 9/10 doesn't sell out?'"
thats not the point, we all know that eventually we will all get a ticket, its all about where the tickets for. Priority gives you the advantage of getting the best seats?

yep, anyone can get a ticket for top tier row ZZ.....its the lower tier front 10 rows behind the sticks that should be for priority and going to all previous rounds of challenge cup games should give you a better chance.....but it doesnt...

I never miss a game, I don't particularly care where I sit. If you're THAT bothered about getting the best seat. Buy it in advance, and sell it on if Wigan don't reach the final. Simple.

Yeah I dont get it all , Warrington is on the west coach main line and would have been a better venue. Leigh is an odd choice

| Its not just the cost of the semi that is the issue, Im taking the kids tomorrow (terracing - so £35, adult and 2 kids). Not bad.
Now, should we win tomorrow then no doubt the final tickets will be on sale to season ticket holders almost immediately from the ground (not checked but it wouldnt suprise me if they are on sale from Sunday/Monday).
As it's a full day the missus will want to come, so all in all you're talking over £100 for four final tickets.
Now, ive factored this in and budgeted for it, but theres families out there who are feeling the strain. Not to mention we are still in week one if the six weeks school holidays and may have spent surplus cash on holiday spends...etc!

| This weekend could be RL's most embarrassing yet, if the atmosphere and attendances come across very poor on national TV.
Discount tickets might of been the way to go just to fill the stadiums, the warning signs have bee there!

| Don't care how many of us are there, how ever many of us are there will make it a good atmosphere.
